So I was just reading an issue of Entertainment Weekly, and in it, an article about summer movies SUCKING was published.
Titled "WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS SUMMER'S MOVIES?"
The story bashed Sex and the City 2, which I personally haven't seen! but my mom loved it, Get Him To The Greek, insanely funny, Prince of Persia, which the man behind this article I won't say his name but his initials are MH call Price of Persia: The Abs of Jake, Shrek and last but not least.. Killers! My Husbands movie that was so awesome I have no clue how it only had $16 Mil opening weekend.
So anyway the basics of this absurd yet legit story are that follow:
-2010 Had the worst Memorial Day weekend box office in 9 years
-So far this summer, the box office is down $147 Mil from last year
Could this be because we're in recession?
I mean, I'm not one to be all political or whatever, but I watch The View occasionally (everyday) and they talk (Elizabeth argues, but anyway) how things are, not as bad but, bad still in the economy.
Doesn't Hollywood realize that some people just can't go out and spend about $20-$30 like they used to, to go watch movies.
I love going to the theater. I love the expirence. I love everything Hollywood creates! But goodnesss! I can't go out to the movies as much as I want. I'm a teenager! A jobless teenager!
I applied for the movie theater, but they haven't calllled:(
So you can't say that it's my fault I can't get a afford it.
Okaaaaay and also, there's this thing about the 10 things this person hates about Katherine Heigl's character in Killers.
They're all about how she's sexy but doesn't own it up, or adult treated like a kid by parents, handles guns like snakes, blahblahblah!
Is it not OBVIOUS to YOU LS who works at ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY that this is the character that was CREATED not only by the writter but also the director.
I know it's your opinion, but who gives a damn about your opinion.
I don't.
This article degrades these movies, and compares them to the previous year that delievered The Hurt Locker and Avatar.
This is 2010. Not 2009.
Get that through yalls thick skulls and appreciate what Hollywood's giving.
Does any of these people who are giving Hollywood a bad name even realize what they’re doing?
If so they’re stupid.
Doesn’t everyone nothing last amazing forever? I’m not saying that Hollywood is going down the drain because it never will. I’m just saying everything goes through a rough patch.
Doesn’t it seem appropriate that something as huge as the movie industry also takes a hit while the country is in recession? It may seem like Hollywood is untouchable, but obviously from the recent stat’s it’s not. It’s taking a hit like every other industry in this country.
Looking over the article I read a line that says that “Killers and Marmaduke are not as good as staying home, even without air-conditioning.”
Okay, so you’re telling all of the movie goers who read this magazine that these movies suck, right?
Some people are as naïve to read what you publish and believe it.
I personally have not seen Marmaduke, but Killers was a very actiony/comedic movie. I wasn’t bored at any time and was laughing and feeling the actors emotion off the screen.
But these people that believe you? They are the reason the box office is down so low. Because you tell them that these movies aren’t worth watching.
I realize I’m no expert on these things, but, besides what my mother says, I have common sense and I look things that I care about through.
